Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info

Sony/BMG's PLAYLIST series features concise compilations of great American artists, sporting eco-friendly packaging and focusing on the work the artists have done for labels that fall under the Sony/BMG umbrella. The Merle Haggard PLAYLIST COLLECTION centers on his latter-day work for Epic, and shows that there was more to the Hag's story than just the Bakersfield sound. With fuller production and more sophisticated songcraft, tunes like "Are the Good Times Really Over" and "That's the Way Love Goes" stand as solid entries in his storied canon.
